Singleton, Frank : Typed Letter Signed - Frank Singleton

Original letter typed in black ink and signed in dark blue ink on beige paper. Signed, "Frank Singleton." Letter is on Singleton's stationery with the following header: "From Mr. Frank Singleton, Bolton Evening News, Telephone 1993." Dated March 7, 1955. 5" x 8." One page. Letter is virtually pristine and intact except for a horizontal fold line at center, a few minuscule wrinkles, and a few almost imperceptible stains. A Fine copy. Frank Singleton (1909-?) was a British journalist and editor of the British newspaper, the Bolton Evening News. This letter is addressed to "Mrs. M. Smithies" of Middle Brig How, Skelwith Bridge, Ambleside in Westmorland, England. Singleton gives words of encouragement to Smithies about her manuscripts. The letter reads, in part, "What a jolly nice kind generous heart-warming letter. We shall certainly miss no opportunity of calling on you. ... I hope you both flourish and that your manuscripts are never like homing pigeons but go out from Skelwith Bridge so bravely beating their white wings that it is almost sad to think they will not return, and comfort is only to be found in the cheques with which the postman's bag is heavy as he staggers up to Middle Brig How.". Manuscript. Book Condition: Collectible-Fine. Binding: No Binding
